On March 14, 2008, defendant Kenneth Pickett was found to be in contempt of this Court's child support order. As a condition of his four month purge and to avoid serving four days in jail, Mr. Pickett was ordered to seek work at five different employers per week, and to report his efforts to the prosecutor at least every two weeks. Upon employment, he was ordered to pay $260 per month, an amount that included payments toward current support and past arrearages. At the June 06, 2008 purge hearing, Assistant Prosecutor David Hitsman reported that there was no evidence of Mr. Pickett attempting to seek work, and no payments had been made. Mr. Pickett brought approximately 17% of the four month total to the purge hearing.
